innovations at the Taiwan Excellence Pavilion. This year’s inaugural
participation at Asia’s premier sourcing and Information and Communication
Technology (ICT) knowledge platform is part of the country’s drive to lend
support to Taiwanese companies in achieving regional competitiveness within the
ICT sector. According to the Taiwan External Trade Development Council
(TAITRA), the initiative is a key component of the Taiwan Industry Image

at booth BQ2-01 feature technologies in the areas of enterprise mobility, green
energy, smart cities and the Internet-of-Things (IoT). The exhibition runs
until May 25 2017 at the Sands Expo and Convention Centre in
Singapore.

Globally renowned Taiwanese companies Acer,
Advantech, ASUS, Planet and VIVOTEK led the products showcase. Alongside these
brands, Dr. Chiueh Tzi-Cker, Vice President & General Director of
Information and Communications Research Laboratories at the Industrial
Technology Research Institute of Taiwan (ITRI) spoke about integrating existing

Association at booth BQ3-13.

Mr. Francis Liang Kuo-Hsin, Representative of
the Taipei Representative Office in Singapore, graced the Taiwan Excellence
Pavilion’s maiden launch at CommunicAsia as its Guest-of-Honour. In his opening
address, Mr. Liang said, “Singapore is an important trade partner of Taiwan,
and we have long established a strong and close bilateral relation between the
two countries. Through Taiwan Excellence’s inaugural participation in
CommunicAsia, we hope to promote partnerships, sharing of our cutting-edge
technologies, and facilitate knowledge exchange between leading Taiwanese
companies, innovators and members of the ICT industry in the Southeast Asia
region”, affirming Taiwan’s focus in the region.

Addressing a room full of partners, media and
guests, Mr. Scott Yang, Deputy Director of Marketing at TAITRA, shared that
“many Taiwan manufacturers possess ground-breaking research and development
(R&D) findings and record strong international sales. Aligned with the government’s
initiatives, Taiwan Excellence aims to help these innovative products and
brands break into the regional market in a bid to garner more opportunities for
international cooperation.”

Situated conveniently by the entrance close to
CommunicAsia’s visitor registration, the Taiwan Excellence Pavilion features an
interactive platform, offering visitors an up-close experience with the
products on exhibit. This strategic location helps focus the spotlight on the
innovative brilliance, further bolstering the eminence of the brands and the
esteem in which they are held.

Ranking 2nd in the world for three years on the
trot and top in Asia in digital adoption encompassing areas such as consumer
technology, e-commerce, financial services and interactive digital media and
telecommunications, Singapore is the natural choice as a launch pad for
Taiwan’s Digital Nation Plan and New Southbound Policy. Over the three days at
CommunicAsia, the expected visitor turnout north of 30,000 flaunts officials,
C-Level executives and international buyers. Working in this space, Taiwanese
manufacturers can expect to present their latest technology innovations in
pursuit of the Asia•Silicon Valley vision of propelling Taiwanese manufacturers
to the international forefront of IoT innovation.
